Just remember, if you *228 you will need to do your AN/UM stuff and change it from vzw back to mycricket in PST.

Normally after your phone is on your carrier, the only reason to do a *228 is to retrieve a new PRL, which could be flashed in manually, if you found it online :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
Should work fine on any android device, it just puts the correct APN in the telephony.db and puts the stuff on the phone to work around the proxy.

Earlier back someone said a good 2.2 rom to work with metropcs was Vannilla Tazz.. So last night I loaded that ROM and loaded my apns file from previous full working 2.1 rom install.. I cannot get the mms to send/receive w this rom. Same thing with Celb FROYO4.3.

Is this an apn issue? I can get everything else working web market etc. just not mms -send/receive..

Any Ideas? -- God bless
[Droid Eris Android Development] matthewmilbut:
Just flashed Vanilla Tazz V28 can't get mms to send/receive.. all else works..? Metro - eris
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Try deleting the telephony.db file and restart the phone to recreate it...Im not to familiar with metro though...

Here is the location:

data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/ databases/
[Droid Eris Android Development] matthewmilbut:
There is a mmssms.db in that directory as well. Not sure how it functions. Let me give it a shot with del telephony.db i'll post back in an edit.

UPDATE: Deleted the telephony.db shutdown/restart... mms messages still stuck on sending.. not receiving either.

UPDATE: Viewing the telephony.db in a text editor shows mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms---
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
I believe that's your actual text messages..

That would be nice; I wonder why noone has looked into getting the MetroPCS MMS issue solved for Froyo ROMs. I've had no luck at all using this flash. I am currently using xtrSENSE b/c it works, but would love to flash a froyo rom and have mms working for metro.
[Droid Eris Android Development] matthewmilbut:
froyo is smoother and snappier it seems for my eris. I'm back to extrom for now everything works.. i think it is 2.1 based though. But can't wait myself until i can get froyo to fully work. I made a backup lastnight of all of my vanillatazz28 settings so i can go back and forth and play with it.

I pushed a metro telephony.db from earlier version into the data/data/blah.. folder..

Still no luck with mms though.. all else works fast and great though.
[Droid Eris Android Development] darkmage1991:
agree. i would love to see some cricket love for froyo, or even the gingerbread roms :)

EDIT: also i have a few friends on straight talk and for some reason i can not recieve any kind of pic message from them, yet other people around me on cricket can...? what could cause this?
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
It took me months but I was finally able to get everything working on my old ERIS running froyo...
[Droid Eris Android Development] meanm50:
Verified! He helped me get it working too. BTW, the Cricket V10 flash works on Gingerbread...but MMS is still a mystery...
[Droid Eris Android Development] poluxproject:
bigshotrob22 Can you please elaborate?

Can you please elaborate? what rom are you using? are you using the tolken procedure? or Bloddy? or are you using something diferent? I just need to be pointed at the right direction.

Best regards

My gf's incredible will randomly accept mms from anyone, and randomly not. If she freshly rebooted, sometimes she can receive one mms. Sending usually works but mms is spotty in some markets, like Buffalo.

Even with a cricket branded phone. Just as unreliable.

Hey has anyone had any luck with mms on gingerbread (metro or cricket), web works fine just no mms.I have an evo btw.

i dont want to start a new thread for this question so i figure here is a good spot to post. did some researching and i found this

this was said to work on the hero, and as i understand the hero is just a sprint version of the eris? so would this work to get into diagnostic mode on 2.2 and 2.3?

i know you can nanrestore to keep your settings but if this works i would much rather use it
[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:
I'd nand backup you rom, and nand restore to sense ui 2.1.

It's the only way I know of on Eris. But try that command line, I've never seen it!

I was able to get the froyo rom to work. tazzvanillav29.... fully working.. apps, internet, mms, market even w/o wifi... with metropcs.

Thankyou Rob for helping me with the mms

Has anyone had anyluck with Tazz Gingerbread6 on metropcs or cricket?

I am having trouble with the mms, all else is functional with the flash

Hi there Matthew, do you mind sharing how you got a Froyo ROM (TazzVanilla v29) to fully work on metro? I have been able to to get apps, market, internet working but I've had no luck with mms? Thanks!

Hell yea GSB 1.6 is best rom ever if they had a metro fix I would talk allot of crap to my friends, plus I'll donate then!
[Droid Eris Android Development] matthewmilbut:
Bigshotrob helped me with the mms.

Once you get everything working.. internet, market blah blah with a froyo rom then go into the folder system\app\ delete the mms.apk that is in there and paste the one attached. then run\install the attached mms.apk thats inside of the system\app\ folder and voila

Working MMS on froyo rom :)

Once again, thanks rob.

He is the one that sent me the mms.apk

--Edit: this works for me with the metropcs v3 flash and vanillatazzv29 rom, I used rootexplorer to access the mms.apk

[Droid Eris Android Development] matthewmilbut:
I've tried using Tazz's gingerbread rom but have had no success with the MMS.

I am using an HTC ERIS. The rom you have is for the HERO.

So, its back to the FROYO rom with working mms.

...I was able to get MMS to receive on the gingerbread. Just could not send out any mms.

Cricket v9 does NOT seem to work in San Diego

I go back and forth between San Diego and Palm Springs. What I observe when I'm out in Palm Springs is that the internet works with the Cricket v9 file...but when I go to San Diego it does not connect to the internet...

Is anyone not getting internet in San Diego with Cricket v9??

I was out in Palm Springs with internet working until July 25 (July 22 was supposedly the day Cricket changed IPs) with Cricket v9 installed...then I went to San Diego, from the 25th until now...still no internet. I flashed Cricket v9 (I used this same file while in Palm Springs) several times on different roms (Evil Eris, zenEXP, Fresh...) still no go.
[Droid Eris Android Development] TiOeM:
Cricket v9 does NOT seem to work in San Diego

Sorry, double post.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t12icky0:
you know i had a problem to kinda like that with the Android market. i just didn't push something right to my phone. Also you might try deleting all the stuff(u2ns and such) and then try doing it again. Thats what i had to do in order for it to work in Kansas City.
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
I have been holding off on the new flash, but hopefully this should solve that issue.

Whiterabbit has been working on some awesome optimizations for the script, essentially unless cricket changes the address (wap.mycricket.com) is the only time it would break it after his new modifications (ip address changes will only require a reboot)

My assumption is that when you travel to back and forth you are getting directed to different proxy servers, which is causing the internet to fail in some locations.

Hopefully my new flash will correct this with a simple reboot thanks to Whiterabbit continued efforts to optimize the scripts :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] t12icky0:
Any estimate as to when it will be released? im super excited about this one cuz i might be able to have MMS..lol. Good work TOKE and thanks for the info..i will try it out and let you know how things go.

Thank you everyone for your hard work. After struggling with the SMS to find that cricket forgot to turn it on. I now have 3G wifi with workin Market, GPS, Web and TXT. Thanks again everyone. it only took one day as to 5 day with the Windows Mobile I have web issues with.

nothing yet token???? sorry im just so excited i can hardly wait for this release..lol.

Thanks for your work Tho Token
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
Had some time to do some more research into crickets network, which made me think about other networks as well, took Whiterabbits awesome script and modified it alittle as well.

Just waiting on a responce back from him and maybe some rehashing of some idea's and i should have something up.

End game is the script i have now for internet never forwards any traffic who's destionation is to private networks (i.e. 10.x.x.x 172.16.x.x or 192.168.x.x) and all other traffic gets forwarded to u2nl which then forwards to the proxy.

What this means to you is that MMS and other potential features may work better/faster. anything going through the internet will still have a little slowdown due to going through the u2nl tunnel though. but MMS is sending consistently for me (any messages 1000kb or less)

Im looking to roll this into a new flash once i hear back from whiterabbit. This will mean an update for all current scripts.

For cricket and metropcs, i have it setup to send anonymously currently, but im looking to find a way to have YOUR correct information input automaticly for authentication (i.e. have the phone number setup in the APN correctly) but this is awhile off, still lots of research to be done of how to obtain this from the phone itself dynamicly with no user interaction.

will keep you all posted, im excited to roll out a new version with whiterabbits optimizations and the customizations i did, but im waiting for his expert advice of any areas i could do better in, and if everything i did was even necessary.

Hey Token419, eagerly awaiting your finds! I'm on metro and am willing to test.
[Droid Eris Android Development] TiOeM:
Figured why I didn't have internet

Just figured out that my problem wasn't the Cricket v9 script, but the user id and password. During my process of making various other changes to my phone (Loading different Roms, Radio and PRL upgrades,etc.), I discovered that when dialing *228 to program your phone through cricket, the NAI and tethered NAI user id and passwords revert back to Verizon.

So be sure check the user id and passwords, to see if they are in fact the mycricket.com:cricket user id and passwords.

P.S. MMS doesn't work for me I'm failing to deliver any pictures.

Use the ClockworkMod Recovery. RA-Recovery will not allow you to flash unsigned ROMs.

http://www.clockworkmod.com/
[Droid Eris Android Development] redhooka:
I mean zip files.
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
All my zip's are signed. Should work in either, on Hero/Eris RA is preferred over clockwork, as some people have reported bricks with clockwork on Hero/Eris. (I personally test the flashes in RA before uploading, so they should work fine in RA at least)

Either should work though.

As an update i should have a new cricket flash up tonight, verified it, just need to boot the linux box to up it, and a BETA metro up as well, im working with someone on gathering the data for metro and then i will take it out of beta, ill leave the origonal in place for now until i can validate the MetroPCS one.

Also for anyone having issues with MMS please post your:

1. Carrier (i.e. Cricket/MetroPCS)

2. Phone Type (i.e. Eris/Hero/Evo/Incredible/Motorolla Droid)

3. Current Rom (i.e. DamageControl/EvilEris/Smoked Glass etc.)

should help us identify known bad roms for MMS, then i can update the main post with that info as well :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:
Yes.

Lots of Droid X's and Droid 2's have worked before, as well as many others.

in a gingerbread rom open up voice dialer and say

OPEN A P N S

"OPEN" "A" "P" "N's"

So the "N's" is pronounced "enz"

A box will pop up saying "open APNs"

Click ok or cancel

Ok to enter the APNs settings

It will be a blank page. Press menu/new

...I get lost here but apparently you can input your apn settings and hit menu again and save them and it will work

I am referencing a forum.cyanogenmod.com thread where USCELLULAR users had issues with MMS and gingerbread.

Look under the htc desire area. There are several recent threads regarding gingernread and mms/apn issues when using prepaid carriers. No metro specific ones I have found but other carriers are there.. if we can figure out the concept we can alter it for our benefit. I have work/college/finance/kids.. strapped for time! Hopefully I have pointed someone w more time than I in the right direction. God bless

Found this over at cyanogenmod forums... haven't tested, im at school..

Okay. There continues to be questions popping up here and there for MMS APN setting for US Cellular. The following settings apply to any current Android phone from USCC. The first thing you need to do is go to settings and find out what your MSID is. Usually it is your phone number, however if you have ported your number from another carrier it may be different. To find out what your MSID is go to SETTINGS>ABOUT PHONE>MORE INFO>STATUS. Your MSID is the number in the MIN field. To add these settings you need to open the Voice Dialer app and speak "Open APNs." Hit the menu button and select "Add APN." Now comes the fun part. Enter the following settings in the fields provided. If the settings that I provided have an empty value, leave it that way. The MIUI rom will delete settings as they scroll off the screen if not saved. So fill in the values you can see and hit done. Then go back in and add the rest until finished. I know dphase was working on a way to make this easier, but until that time this is the way it has to be done. Hopefully this helps!

I GOT IT TO WORK!

Here is what you do!

When you get into The voice dialer apn settings after you have internet and all that jazz working and have put the mms.apk file in as well

n a gingerbread rom open up voice dialer and say

OPEN A P N S

"OPEN" "A" "P" "N's"

So the "N's" is pronounced "enz"

A box will pop up saying "open APNs"

Click ok or cancel

Click "Ok" to enter the APNs settings

It will be a blank page. Press "menu" then "new"

When you create a new file use these settings

Legend---ns=<Not Set>

Production

1

ns

ns

ns

ns

ns

http://mms.metropcs.net/mmsc

ns

ns

310

012 (Dont change this! I tried putting the default 027 and it wouldnt save! So I tried leaving it at 012 and that was the key)

ns

mms

(then press menu)(save)

Gingerbread GSB1.6 droid eris w mms on metropcs.. YEA baby..

Oh yea, you have to reboot after you save the file.. if you dont see production in the list of apn after you input the settings and save then it didnt work!

Note: Production is the only apn i see in the list after i save it Post if you have a problem. Mines workin tho :) So I know it worked
